With Tony, you are always just hoping he can tread water enough early in the season and his otherwise "off" months. He always seems to have 2 huge months and then struggle the rest.

Please, for the sake of all that’s holy, please. Stop calling him Santa.

The Orioles are on pace to score 880 runs, which is 73 more than last year.   Individual players are going to have ups and downs during the year.

To be fair, Dirty is always done on EVERYTHING Orioles. As great as Burnes has been, he's even been down on him this year. 

Truly a happy and joyous individual... sarcasm

and he wont get one. This is Santander's final year as an Oriole. He played well for most of his time here. And he should cash his chips and make a lot of money somewhere else.Bless him. He earned it.

Does his hot streak this week change anyone’s mind on offering a qualifying offer?

what do his end of year counting stats look like for us to offer a QO and for him to turn it down?

I was pro QO before the season and am still pro QO.

No.   A super hot week,  or a super cold one,  shouldn't sway opinions.  That said,  the better he finishes and plays the rest of the year,  the better for the Os, both as a team this year and the chance of getting a pick for Santander when he turns down the QO.  If I'm Elias, I only offer the QO if I'm sure there is a 90% or better chance he turns it down.  Now if we trade some of the kids we are expecting to replace him next year,  then the calculus would change of course.

I think we can only get 1 pick, and we will get that for Burnes.

If so,  then I don't offer him obviously.   But I don't think that's accurate.  Could be wrong though.

I don't see anything in the rules that says that, but I could be missing something.

I’m honestly not sure either. Just remember it being discussed here and someone who knows everything saying that was the case.

No, but it will pain me to see him go. Extremely likeable player who's had big moments here.

      Will the Orioles make the playoffs?

      By slakattack · Posted

      Saturday's game was epically bad and not the type of loss a team on the upswing into the playoffs would suffer and one that I certainly hate to witness. I couldn't watch most of the game Sunday, but I wouldn't DVR it and then peek at the score either, I don't think that I would ever watch if I knew the outcome of a game in advance. The surprise elation (Gunnar's bases loaded double) and the agony of the non-send and inability to hit a sac fly is what keeps me coming back, old fool that I am.

      Orioles attendance 2024

      By bpilktree67 · Posted

      Predicting what the attendance will do next year is like predicting Hurrican season in January.  There are so many outside factors that it is just a guess.  How will they finish the year, how much will the spend in the offseason, how many corporations want to get ticket plans,   how is the economy in 6 months, how do they play next season what teams we play and when, will teams like Red Sox, Yankees and big draws play well.   I also think one of the biggest factors is what corporations want to sponsor give aways and what time of promotions will they run.  If you look at attendance some of the largest attendance games minus the Phillies, Yankees games are for the best giveaway souvenirs.

      Brandon Hyde 2024

      By theobird · Posted

      I’m a big supporter of Brandon Hyde, but the last game against Detroit I think he made a mistake. Second and third, nobody out….I would have had mullins bunt. He’s a good bunter, and with holiday at third I think that’s walk off.

      So I guess Ohtani decided he was bored this year since he wasn’t pitching or playing the field, and decided to steal bases just to have something else to do besides hit.

      I’d say maybe they would have reached 2013 levels (2.357 mm), which would have been about another 76,000 fans.  I seriously doubt they would have reached 2014 (2.464 mm, another 183,000 fans).

      Great point. You are right Frobby. It wouldn't have been quite as bad if the Orioles dropped these series and they had to face Skubal both times but to be fortune enough not to get him either time and still lose 4 of 6 was even more disheartening.

      Will the Orioles make the playoffs?

      By Gurgi · Posted

      Pretty much exactly what I am thinking.  I even had to cut back on my watching the games because the frustration was killing me.  Now I save all games on DVR and peek at the score if it is safe to watch.  This is odd because when the Orioles suck and they are far below .500 I watch every single game.  Sometimes every single inning of the year.   Crazy if the Orioles had STARTED the year sucking and had to spend the last two months in an amazing race to catch up for a chance for the playoffs we would all be thrilled.   But end the season on a three month skid of misery and the same playoff spot just feels empty.
